Deadmans Bay camping area (walk-in camping)

Campsite

This camp at the eastern side of the Ironbound Range has plenty of sheltered sites among trees next to a creek. The 12 km track from Louisa River over the Ironbound Range is rough, steep and muddy on its descent into the camp, so allow 10 hr. To the east, the New River Lagoon stage is also a muddy 9 km (allow 4 hr). Bring a gas/fuel stove.

Information

There are 6 camping areas on the 85 km, 5–10 day trek around Tasmania’s wild southern coastline, from Cockle Creek to Melaleuca at Bathurst Harbour. Walkers must be experienced, well-equipped and able to sit out weather delays. Gas/fuel stoves are required. Note: walkers should register at Cockle Creek or Melaleuca.
